Is there a plugin for Storyline available to check corporate writing rules?
Dear all,
I would like to know if there is a plugin for Storyline, which incorporates Style Guides and checks, if the written text aligns with the corporate writing strategy.
In the past, I worked with Acrolinx to check if the text was aligned with our corporate writing style. However, I always had to check a Word Export because there was no plugin available for Storyline, but for Word. As you can imagine, this practice was very limited since I could not check the text on the slides. The tool can't read a jpeg.
Can you recommend me a plugin for Storyline that checks if the text is aligned with the corporate writing strategy? Or is there a plugin planned for the future? It would make writing e-learning content so much easier. For now, if there is text on the slide, I have to check it manually if it aligns with our writing strategy.
Best regards,
Birgit
Hi Birgit!
What a great idea! We currently don't support any plug-ins that check customized corporate writing rules. We use the standard spell check for grammar, punctuation, and spelling.
I'll be interested in checking out other tools our community members use!

What a great idea, @Birgit! I wonder if anyone ever submitted this as a feature request...Even if it can't be done to account for custom corporate writing styles, maybe a few of the standard style guides, like MLA, APA, etc.

To make language checking easy, it would be helpful if Acrolinx could be used directly from Articulate SL 360.
Now we export the text for audio into MS Word and do the Acrolinx check there. However, the correction is then time-consuming because we have to maintain the text corrections manually in SL.
